Tangerine Skies, With Soft Coloured Eyes

Darryn John Murphy

Immersing within you, and falling right through you
Tangerine skies, with soft coloured eyes
My heart yearns with the humble sense of you
Heavens splendour, my paradise

Unbridled are the hidden depths within my eyes
Step into me, I’ll dance right through you
One gentle hand and tender touch
Among the stars, I dear so much

I linger lonely, and long for your touch
How have I wondered, and lived for so much
Heaven knows my sweet surprise
Paradise praised before my eyes

My hands so soft mellow
Beneath the sun that appears so yellow
My hearts haven, hears your song
To step and dance, as I hum along

Meek as I am, I am whole
There is a love within my soul
